| Yield: | one 8-inch round brownie |
Ingredients
- Nonstick baking spray, for the skillet
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. (Or build your campfire and allow it to die down a bit, then move the embers to one side. Place a grate over top of the fire.) Lightly spray an 8-inch cast-iron skillet (with a lid if baking on a campfire) with baking spray.
- In a large bowl (or a ziptop bag), combine the sugar, flour, chocolate chips, cocoa powder, espresso powder and salt. In a separate small bowl (or a jar with a lid), whisk (or shake) together the oil, vanilla and eggs. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir together (or smush if using a ziptop bag) until completely combined and incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the skillet and spread in an even layer (if using a ziptop bag, cut the corner and squeeze into the skillet). Bake until the top of the brownie looks set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with moist crumbs sticking to it, 25 to 30 minutes. (If baking on a campfire, top the skillet with a lid and bake for 30 minutes, then remove the lid, poke a few holes into a piece of tin foil and cover loosely. Bake for another 15 minutes.)

We were at the cottage in a power outage that lasted over a week, I was getting restless and made this on the BBQ. DELICIOUS! Will certainly make again!
It was ok. I didn’t care for the texture of the brownie and thought it was a bit bland tasting.
An AMAZING Brownie recipe! Delicious & Chocolatey, Heavenly 🙂 Thanks
Just got home from a week long tent camping at the beach in sunny CA . I prepared all the dry ingredients ahead of time and did the wet ingredients there since we where there so long. We made these one night and turned out great ! We did it on a charcoal grill and made a donut shape with the coals and put the pan in the middle. I did use a disposable square pan with cooking spray. I followed the cooking directions exactly including the foil covering with the holes poked in and turned out great. We even bought some ice cream at the camp store for a topper . Fun dessert other then s’mores . My entire family really enjoyed it .
